I have the Big Bend 2 door, which has 17" wheels.

i want to put 35" tires on it.

do I need new wheels? Or will a 35/12.5/17 fit on the wheels?

if not, what is the biggest size I can get without replacing the rims?

If you want specifically a 35x12.5R17 tire... then yes, you will probably need new wheels. The Big Bend wheels are 7.5" wide wheels. Most 35x12.5R17 tires require 8.5" wide wheels... although you may be able to find some that support 8" wide wheels.

You can buy tire sizes similar to 35x12.5R17... such as 35x10.5R17 or 305/70R17 that may fit on a 7.5" wheel.
